Under the agreement, Intel has received a license to all AmberWave patents and patent applications either existing today or filed during the agreement’s 10-year term. The companies have also agreed to continuing discussions and evaluation of AmberWave’s ongoing technology research and development efforts. Intel will make license payments to AmberWave over the term of the agreement.
